Answer:

The answer is: y = 2/3x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given point: (3, -1)

Given equation: y = 2/3x - 5, which is in the form y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept.

Parallel lines have the same slope. Use the point slope form of the equation with the point (3, -1) and substitute:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - (-1) = 2/3(x - 3)

y + 1 = 2/3x - 6/3

y + 1 = 2/3x - 2

y = 2/3x - 3

Proof:

f(3) = 2/3(3) - 3

= 6/3 - 3

= 2 - 3

= -1, giving the point (3, -1)

Hope this helps! Have an Awesome Day!!  :-)

Answer:

A. 82°

B. 144°

C. 75°

D. 150°

E. 241°

F. 80°

Step-by-step explanation:

A circle is 360°

A. 360 - 278 = 82 °

B. 360 - (124 + 92) = 144 °

C. 360 - (255 + 30) = 75 °

D. 360 - (118 + 30 +62) = 150 °

E. 360 - (21 +41 + 57) = 241 °

F. 360 - (30 + 60 + 80 + 110) = 80°

Also, the 80° is congruent so it's the same on both sides.

m∠B = 33° is the answer.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

If two triangles ΔABC and ΔMOP are similar,  then their corresponding angles are congruent.

In any triangle, sum of the measure of the angles add up to 180°.

∠A+ ∠B+ ∠C = 180°

∠A  ≅ ∠M

∠B ≅ ∠O

∠C ≅ ∠P

So we can add as,

∠A + ∠B+ ∠P = 180°

45° + ∠B + 102° = 180°

∠B + 147° = 180°

∠B = 180° - 147° = 33°

Answer:

  P(0, 4), Q(-3, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the y-coordinate of P, replace x with 0 and solve for y:

  3y = 12

  y = 4 . . . . . divide by 3

__

To find the x-coordinate of Q, replace y with 0 and solve for x:

  -4x = 12

  x = -3 . . . . . divide by -4

Then the intercepts are P(0, 4) and Q(-3, 0). The line is drawn through those points for the indicated values of x.

Find the solution of this system of equations. Separate the x- and y- values with a comma. x-2y=-24 and x-y=4
defon
X - 2y = -24
x - y = 4

Isolate x in the first equation by adding 2y to both sides.
x = -24 + 2y  

Now plug in this value of x into the second equation.
(-24 + 2y) - y = 4
Solve. Combine all like terms, 2y - y.
-24 + y = 4
Add 24 to both sides to isolate y.
y = 28

Now plug y back into the first equation to find x.
x - 2(28) = -24
x - 56 = -24
Add 56 to both sides to isolate x.
x = 32

The solution is (32, 28).
